It's not fast-paced, is the issue. In Wanderer's with the 2m burst, we run at about ~46-48cpm with an extra hectic front end. Mage's clocks in around ~42cpm, very chill and steady since you have lots of time to use Bloodletter.

Then after some 50+ seconds of doing lightly busy but very low-stress filler, it's AP time. Devoid of oGCDs including needing to save Bloodletters, it clocks in a snail-like 32cpm with absolutely nothing going on. And we sit in this state for a full 43 seconds.

Army's used to be a welcome reprieve, when Mage's was a highly stressful game of whack-a-mole and Wanderer's had not only our burst stuff but also a lot of rocky navigation to get out of it without wasting procs. After a minute of that, chilling for 20 seconds was fine. Needed, even.

But in this kit, it just doesn't make sense.
